What is it you lack at the moment, the chair or the cigar?

The small developers.

I'm 5 foot 8", so most developers are taller.

My ma tells me the growth hormones should kick in any day now.

What's the matter with the Hearts of Iron III strategy guide? The link is http://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/showthread.php?416099-Strategy-Guide but when I download it, Preview states that it cannot open the PDF because it might be corrupted or damaged. Which kind of, uh, sucks.

Thanks in advance!

I just tried to download it, and did not experience any problems. Can anybody else confirm this?

This link will most probably not work for you either, but perhaps it's worth trying. Please let me know how it goes.
 
Hi,

I would like to ask about For the Motherland HoI3 expansion:

Any info about how many CPU cores will game be able to use with this expansion?

not sure this is the place for HoI questions, but I guess due to title of thread you can ask whatever you want. There will be a dev diary about multi threading in the near future with info about this so stay tuned.
 
What is Paradox's top selling game? (I don't expect actual numbers of course) With Magika, EUIII, HOI3, and Vicky2 it should be interesting.

Depends if you mean $ or copies. Either way I have no idea :p, but my guess when it comes to number of copies would be the order you gave them in.

When are you going to make a cross between FarmVille and HOI3?

Shhh! Don't give Fredrik such ideas, or I'll end up working on it...
 
I really liked what they had to say in New York when I sat down with them, but I have not had time to see a recent build. Sounded at the time as if it was going to be close to a Harpoon Level, which kind of made me salivate. :)
 
How do you guys at Paradox feel towards Naval War: Arctic Circle?

I think they have a really cool thing going on. A more realistic approach to naval warfare than most other games that just include ships as a smaller part.
I've seen something similar that was actually developed by the military that they used for combat training. The advantage of Naval War compared to that is that NW actually has graphics, good graphics even!
 
Did Magicka sell more copies than EU3 and HOI3 combined?

No, but its going to soon unless Johan can muster more expansions for EU/HOI :)

How/where did Shams learn English (Americanish)?

Was it really that thick?

I was born in Iran but grew up in Scotland, so when we moved to Sweden and I started kindergarten I spoke English (Scottish?). So english was actually my second language. As I grew up TV/Movies were a big interest (American influence). But then again I've always been able to change my accent. I do a fair Russian, British, Irish, German,French and Swedish accent. Up until recently I thought I had a decent Scottish, but then King and Darkrenown ridiculed me mercilessly, so I'm done with that.

Ill try to do another accent for the next interview.

Nobody from outside Ireland can pull off a Dublin accent, so i'm guessing it's a quasi-culchie one

It's very much based on Marty McFlys relatives from Back to the Future 3.
